New Living Translation

1 Timothy 1 : 3-6

Warnings against False Teachings 3 When I left for Macedonia, I urged you to stay there in Ephesus and stop those whose teaching is contrary to the truth.
4 Don't let them waste their time in endless discussion of myths and spiritual pedigrees. These things only lead to meaningless speculations, [4] which don't help people live a life of faith in God. [4] 5 The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith.
6 But some people have missed this whole point. They have turned away from these things and spend their time in meaningless discussions.

<1:4a Greek in myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation.1:4b Greek a stewardship of God in faith.
